bash jess all you want, he's the one who deserves it.
I'm bashing no one and I don't believe I have brought Rachel into this, other than Mr. Jackson is her owner. This has nothing to do with her. Nothing. It is about the choices her owner made for her.

As far as what I know about horses, I am a breeder and have been for over 40 years. I made an observation about the owner of a horse who had the opportunity to assess his filly's condition and chose to be wishy washy about it. Has nothing whatsoever to do with the filly.

gotcha

there have been others here who have repeatedly referred to the apple blossom as a way to bash the horse. it's really crazy. it's like bashing zenyatta because of her races. she has no more say over where she runs than rachel does.
i hope they face off at some point, but i just wonder if it will ever happen.
